March 8th 2010 International Women’s Day
Capitalism in Crisis—Women in Action!
The revolution is ours to make. It is our greatest duty. It is our greatest joy.
-Nellie Wong
As the inequality and unsustainability of capitalism become ever more apparent, working class women are mobilizing—to expose and oppose our exploitation; to support our families and communities through these turbulent times; to reclaim our proud history of resistance; and to look forward to a future where we can reach our full potential and our genuine liberation.
For nearly 100 years, March 8th International Women’s Day, has been an occasion for women around the world to come together, to take to the streets, to raise our voices, to remember our history and to forge our future. Here in Vancouver, Grassroots Women has carried on this tradition for the past 13 years, and we invite all women, children and men to join us at this year’s event.
International Women’s Day March and Rally
Monday March 8th 5:00 p.m.
Location: Victory Square (E. Hastings and Cambie streets, downtown Vancouver)
Join Grassroots Women as we take to the streets to mark this important day in the resistance of working class women around the world. Our 14th annual mobilization will advance the rich tradition of resistance on this day.

Vancouver?s inner-city is home to children who are the most vulnerable and least

behind stay behind.
